If You Were Wondering What All The Fuss Was About Thursday

Written by Boston Biker on Nov 30

Seems one green line trolly ran into another…I hope everyone is ok. Riding my bike around downtown (I was the only thing on wheels moving through the traffic snarl) I appreciated my bike more than ever.

Public Meeting: Green Line Extension Project

Written by Boston Biker on Feb 26

Got the following today, perhaps someone could go tell these people that we would like to see some way to take bikes on the green line, especially if they are going to take an already woefully bad line and make it bigger…

——–

Monday, March 9th Brooks elementary school, 388 high street Medford
Wednesday, March 11th Somerville High School, 81 Highland Ave somerville

5:30 project open house
6:30-8:30 meeting presentation and questions

The Green Line Extension Project is an initiative of the Massachusetts Executive Office of Transportation in coordination with the MBTA. The project will extend existing MBTA Green Line service from Lechmere station through the communities of Cambridge, Somerville, and Medford with an extension of the main line to Route 16 and an adjunct line to Union Square.

EOT will present an overview of the project, an environmental analysis, recommendations for station sites, and the preferred project alignment.

You are invited to attend either of the meetings public input results in better projects.

To request access of language accomodations, please call Regan Checchio at 617-357-5772 at least ten days in advance.

Directions and more project information are available at www.greenlineextension.com
